I was
asked to do a favor for the Old School Essentials Kickstarter and be a tester
for the GM screen inserts. I do want to qualify this review and say I was sent
the product for free and it was to make sure that the printing was on target
and quality. I am happy to say that this product is a great quality for the
asking price. You are getting crisp, clear screen inserts with the trademark
Necrotic Gnome layout. The art is striking and the colors really pop. They are
printed through DriveThruRPG and the process took about 1 week including the
shipping (for someone in America). They come in sturdy packaging shown below and are printed on a thick, semi-gloss cardstock. If you want to buy this product look here.
I
cannot stress enough how wonderfully these insert’s layout is and how easy they
are to use at the table. I know that Gavin polled people in the OSE forums
asking what tables they would like to see, so it was community input that
helped in the design. While these are designed with OSE in mind, many OSR games
could have this GM Screen and it would be an asset. Especially players of BX,
BECMI, and Labyrinth Lord. The product will be released to the public soon, and
if you have not considered getting one, you should take a look.
(Please note the camera on my phone is not very good, the
color on the artwork is much better in person.)
If you have any questions on the product, I would be more than happy to answer them. Seek me out in the comments below or on Facebook.
I went ahead and created a Facebook group for the blog, if you are interested the link is here.
I also created a Facebook group for Old School Essentials players here.
How do you hold them together?
